History

One hundred APRD fighters attacked Bodjomo on 28 December 2005, making it the first APRD's attack.[1] In response to it, Presidential Guard visited the village. They killed seven civilians and torched 500 houses.[2]

Revolution and Justice captured Bodjomo in January 2014 from Seleka's hand.[3] In April 2014, Séléka militias visited Bodjomo and killed four people, including two catechists from the catholic church.[4]

On 28 December 2017, a clash between RJ and MPC ensued in Bodjomo.[5] As a result, the villagers fled, thus leaving the ex-Seleka fighters only in Bodjomo.[6]

In September 2022, a flood swept Bodjomo due to the heavy rain, causing the destruction of farm fields and the villager's houses.[7]

Education

Bodjomo has three schools. In February 2016, only two were operational.[8] An armed group occupied the school in September 2016, thus averting the teaching and learning activities.[9]

Healthcare

There is one health post in the village.[10]
